Dorla Schlitt's Holiday Breakfast
Casserole
(also known as Mom's Breakfast Casserole ... you'll
see why!)
Like many families, from the time we were married and
began our own family we were expected to be "home" for
Christmas if we were within driving distance. It was
somewhat simpler than in some families in that our
parents' homes were within 30 miles of each other,
allowing us to split our holiday time between
grandparents' homes and enjoying the company of our
brothers' families as well.
John and I would pack up all four children (their stuff
and ours), along with a "boat load" of Christmas
presents. Our longest trip was from Nashville to central
Illinois so we always headed out the driveway in the
middle of the night. This early start allowed the
children to sleep the first four hours with a stop for
breakfast before finishing the last tedious four hours
of the trip. This was a Christmas tradition for over 18
years.
One of our family's favorite Christmas morning dishes
was a breakfast casserole my Mom made every year. For
the last 12 years or so I have made the Christmas
breakfast casserole at our home and our grandchildren
are enjoying it now!
It's easy to prepare the night before, convenient to
bake on Christmas morning, and tastes awesome! Everyone
wants seconds!

Roast
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 envelope dry Lipton onion soup mix
1-1 1/2 can water
roast
peeled potatoes
peeled carrots
Lay the meat, potatoes, and carrots in a
deep oven roasting pan. Mix the ingredients and pour
over the meat & vegetables. Cover and bake 350 degrees
for at least 3 hours. Check toward the end to make sure
there is still plenty of liquid.
If the roast is large or if you want to
be sure it is tender, cut it into large sections. To
make the liquid into gravy if it's not thick enough:
either add another can of cream of mushroom soup or use
flour/cornstarch as a thickener. |
